Too Unfit to Exercise? Get An Electric Bike

INACTIVITY CAUSES POOR HEALTH

In May 2019 NHS published a study which revealed 29% of adults in the UK are obese. As our lifestyles change for the worse, our health and fitness suffer. We drive to work or use public transport, and we work in front of a computer screen, we also spend long hours at work and we have less leisure time, we spend more time on social media and far less time being active outdoors. All these lifestyle changes mean our health and wellbeing has changed too. It is never too late to change and we can tell you how electric bikes are the perfect antidote.

Studies suggest that from the age of 50 we lose up to 2% muscle mass per year. This causes our metabolism to decrease and consequently, the weight creeps on. Take a look at the NHS studyhere, it outlines how a lack of regular activity at any age is associated with a dramatic increase in cases of obesity, heart disease, diabetes, musculo-skeletal problems and other lifestyle diseases. Whatever age you are and however unfit you feel, now is the time to choose to get fit, and stay fit.

Our health and wellbeing matters, arguably above everything. If we are not mentally or physically fit, work life and home life suffer and a downward spiral begins.
